      BMW was one of the firsts to have Bluetooth integration and the first for iPod support.

        Slowly starting to put my air ride in. Started on putting a wood floor in the trunk. I wanted to get the trunk put together last night so I could stain the wood but it started to rain.

          What color are you staining it?  I love me some Minwax "Early American".

            I think I'll be getting semi solid cordovan brown that Cabot makes. Reason for that is it looks like it'll match the wood interior trim I have.

              I got the floor all together today. It's hinged in two places. On top in the back and on the bottom in the front. Now all that needs to be done is to stain the wood!

                I like it, the air ride equipment will be underneath in the spare tire well I assume?

                  It'll all be under the frame that the air tank is on top of. So I'll still be able to have a spare tire!

                    Got the air installed over the weekend. Had a slight wiring problem, but it's all good now.

                          It rides a lot better than the coilovers I had. But they did have 50,000 miles on them. Haha.

                              Ordered spacers for the front earlier this week and they have arrived today! Put them on and this is how they fit now. The rear still needs work. But I don't have the time at the moment for that.

                                So my car has been put away for winter already. I have the starting of my to do list.

                                2015-16 winter to do:

                                Refinish wheels

                                Cooling system

                                Disa valve

                                Brake booster

                                Timing chain tensioner/guides

                                Exhaust

                                Redo air management wiring

                                Rewrap head liner and a, b, and c pillars

                                Roof pdr

                                Order new compressors

                                Hard line setup

                                If time is available:

                                Differential

                                There is a few more thing as well but I can't think of them at the moment though.

                                  Over the past summer my car was sitting outside in a hail storm and had hail damage on the roof, hood, and trunk lid. And I got these with most of the insurance money. Can't wait to put them on.

                                      Is that a csl trunk?  It's hard to tell in the picture.

                                        Haha. It was a bit of messing around with the insurance company to get a check for me.

                                          Just a little update..

                                          Snap powder coated my centers for me and I had Rad-fab polish my lips for me. I also took of my front end for my maintenance work. I also have my hood and trunk lid on I just got to get the alignment better.
